Holy Christmas Mass

As per tradition, the Holy Mass on 25 December at 8 a.m., celebrated in the evocative setting of the parish church of San Vigilio, is enhanced by the presence of the "Enrosadira" Choir from Moena. This appointment represents a moment of great spirituality and sharing for the local community and for the many guests who choose to spend Christmas in the Fairy of the Dolomites. The a cappella harmonies of the choir, with their intensity, accompany the celebration of the birth of Jesus, touching the hearts of those present. The repertoire on offer ranges from the best-loved Christmas songs to songs that preserve the memory and cultural roots of the valley. Among these, Luigi Canori's evocative "Te cianal de legn", performed in Ladin language, resonates particularly strongly, evoking the essence of the mountains and their people. It will be a special occasion to exchange greetings, rediscover the deeper meaning of Christmas and let oneself be carried away by the beauty of the music, which blends with the warmth of the community gathered together. At the end of the liturgy, it is worth stopping in front of the crib, skilfully crafted by local artisans. Every detail tells of the tradition and richness of the Dolomites, with scenes of life that seem to come alive, as if the work of the craftsmen themselves gave them a second soul. The figures, modelled with great care, fit perfectly into the context of the church, creating an extraordinary balance between sacredness and tradition.
